The Montgomery law firm of Beasley, Allen, Crow, Methvin, Portis & Miles is suing the fast-food company for false advertising after attorneys had the Taco Bell “meat mixture” tested and found it contained less that 35 percent beef.

The nation – which until now had considered a Beefy Crunch Burrito™ stuffed with Flamin Hot™ Fritos™ and slathered in nacho cheese sauce to be part of a nutritious diet – is appalled.

But look at ingredients #3 and #8 – isolated oat product and oats. Nothing wrong with oats, is there? Oatmeal is a significant sources of dietary fiber, which helps lower LDL (bad) cholesterol. Any doctor will tell you that oats are better for you than red meat.

So while Taco Bell may be fudging on their “ground beef” with cheap filler, that filler could actually be healthier to eat. Taco Bell could be doing its customers a favor by deceiving them.

Anyway it’s got to be healthier than this:

It’s not delivery. It’s frozen pizza AND cookies or chicken. Available at supermarkets starting Monday.

UPDATE: Taco Bell statement regarding class-action lawsuit:

“At Taco Bell, we buy our beef from the same trusted brands you find in the supermarket, like Tyson Foods. We start with 100 percent USDA-inspected beef. Then we simmer it in our proprietary blend of seasonings and spices to give our seasoned beef its signature Taco Bell taste and texture. We are proud of the quality of our beef and identify all the seasoning and spice ingredients on our website. Unfortunately, the lawyers in this case elected to sue first and ask questions later — and got their “facts” absolutely wrong. We plan to take legal action for the false statements being made about our food.”
